We go back home and after giving the girls a bath and a bottle I put them for a nap. They fuss a little but eventually fall asleep after I promise to take them to Christian once they wake up.
I switch on the baby monitor and take a long hot shower. I am tired to the bone. My mind is numb.
I was so mad at Grey for picking up a fight with... No no... Don't think about him! Stop! Grey doesn't know. Not yet.
I will spank the living daylights out of his bottom once he is back in shape I swear. I almost had a heart attack seeing him lie cold on the floor in the bathroom.
I am so proud of both my girls though. They really listened to everything o said except for the bit where I tried to leave them behind with Ron. I should call Ron and tell him that Christian's fine now.
Grey proposed. Surely, he couldn't have meant it? I mean he was on heavy meds, right? Or maybe he was scared that I'd be super mad at him once he wakes up. I mean I remember how he freaked out when I asked him to move in together with me.
He cannot be serious about marriage.
I clean myself and then get into some comfy clothes and fix myself a sandwich and grab a beer.
After lunch I set an alarm for after an hour and crash.
I am woken up by the alarm. God, I feel like a vampire again. I go to wake the girls up and bring them down. They are both half asleep.
"Come on babies, lunch quickly, then we go to see daddy." I bounce them on my arms, trying to wake them up.
"Not hungwie" Ana says.
"I want to see daddy. Let's go now." Carol adds.
"Not without you having lunch first. I'll make mac and cheese? Okay?"
